Anyone else have problems with interior lock button in the cold?

Question for MK2 owners.

For some reason my interior lock/unlock button wont work in the cold. Every time i want to get out or let a passenger out i have to turn the ignition off so it self unlocks then start it again.

works fine once the interior of the car has warmed up or in warmer weather.

The passenger side, front, door handle didnt want to spring back on its own, had to get out and close it, before the door would lock, suppose just a bit of ice holding it.

I'm so worried about pulling the door handle off in these weather. Even when the handle would work the door would be iced shut I have use my fingers to prise the door open rather than yanking it with the door handle.

if you have gloves on hit around the edge of the door it will brak the ice seal on the door

My drivers side button doesn't always pop up when it is really cold, I just re lock a couple of times and it seems to work.

i think a few people are getting confused with what im on about.lol i dont mean the door pins or the handels. Im on about the actual button on the dash on the mk2 next to the clock. It wont unlock any of the doors when cold.
